accelerative
Causing faster motion
Accelerative describes something that causes or relates to acceleration—an increase in speed or rate.
The term appears mainly in technical contexts: accelerative forces, accelerative effects on growth.
It functions as the adjective form where acceleration would be awkward: The drug's accelerative properties shortened recovery time.
